I was really gutted when I found out. It was shocking and disgusting

‘We hope to restore the garden as soon as possible so the children can enjoy playing outside again.’

To help fund new toys and equipment, Angie Tailor-Joice, whose daughter, Indira-Kiki Joice, four, started a GoFundMe page.

The attack has captured the public’s heart, with over £500 being raised so far.

Angie said: ‘We had such a lovely Christmas break and the girls who worked there had to clean urine up.

‘After spending a lot of time indoors, Indy was really excited to go back to nursery and play outside, which she couldn’t do. I was really gutted when I found out. It was shocking and disgusting.

‘The children had to play indoors and, although the staff made it fun for them, as an adult you could see something was missing.

‘I knew I had to do something because when it is your child and you see that the staff at the nursery work so hard every day, it makes you think. The response I have got from the Go Fund Me page has been overwhelming and blown me away.’
